I think there are a couple typos in my reply - where I refer to tysales and lysales in the final SELECT. Check it out.

What type of select statement do I need to produce a data set containing:

Customer#
2011 sales
2012 sales

Generated from a file containing sales from several years.

I am using this statement:

exec SQL
declare stor_sls cursor for
select sdan8,
sum(sdaexp/100)
from f4211l9
where sdivd>=:j_start and sdivd<=:j_end and
sdlnty not in('T ', 'TN', '% ') and
sdmcu=:mcu group by sdan8
order by sum(sdaexp) desc;

This statement produces what I want for the given date range..i.e.

Customer#
2012 sales


but I need a separate field for the prior years sales

Do I declare a separate cursor for the prior year and then join the two???

Thanks in advance...
Chuck
